The nurse applies and complies with the protocols drawn up by the doctor in accordance with the provisions of articles R. 4311-7 and R. 4311-14.
Whenever they consider it essential, nurses ask the doctor in charge to draw up a written, dated and signed protocol.
In the event of the implementation of a written protocol of emergency care, or of protective acts performed until the intervention of a doctor, the nurse will provide the latter with a written, dated and signed report, which will be appended to the patient’s file.
In the event of an emergency, and unless a protocol has been implemented, the nurse decides what action to take until a doctor can intervene. They take all measures within their power to direct the patient to the most appropriate care structure for their condition.
